I have known of the Bandy bandy for some years. I find it strange that a new "species" of Bandy bandy has been found for a couple of reasons 1) If it was a new species it would not be of the Bandy Bandy Species. 2) Weipa, although remote, has a largish out door population in the area and an even larger outdoor tourist population. + It is a Bauxite mining area, where the Bauxite is on top of the ground so a massive area has already been scraped.

With this in mind one wonders why any species of animal-other than insects-were not discovered long ago. Maybe the locals have known of this "new" snake for decades but Biologists have only just discovered that it is a undocumented sub species (Race) of Bandy Bandy.
